lyrics

Written by Dan Rose, Ryan Tilly, and David Willard

everytime i turn on the radio, i don't know..it might be me
but i don't believe all the wack mcs that i'm hearin'
and all the disposable scenes appearin' on MTV
and the BET, Hell...i'm embarassed to be an mc,
call me MC Boney, the super-disco treat
"what ever happened to the old school beats the new school is too cool
even for me, i want to return it but i lost my receipt"
you gotta flow, oh, don't you know, carpet ride to the show
c.p.r. the revolution, gonna change the constitution, standing here
i understand we're bringin' back an old-school brand
everybody wants a piece so go ahead and sign the lease
climbin' up so high c.p.r. won't die, we're comin' back again
please girls don't cry. Should i fail to please you which i highly doubt i will
you can write me a letter and sign it discowhore, girl.
<chorus>
we're just a three-man party brigade, kickin' it new school like dr. dre
takin' ya back to the good ol' days when the
reign of rob base would make the whole place,
move their feet to the funky ol' beat, don't take that seat
cuz that is mine, like Cher i wish i could turn back time and bring
back every mc that i find
<chorus>
